Topgolf: Hitting the Target for Open Arms
By Beth Johnson MAA Executive Assistant & Open Arms Representative
With Topgolf’s fun and modern approach to the driving range, Open Arms fundraising events have continued to grow. The venue offers an easy, enjoyable way for sponsors, MAA associates, and volunteers to connect while supporting the program. In 2025, three successful Topgolf events were held. The 2nd Annual Open Arms Topgolf Event in Jacksonville, FL, known as Golftoberfest, was a standout. Held on October 30, the event brought together about 110 attendees and raised more than $81,000 for the Open Arms Foundation, thanks to generous sponsors and thoughtful planning.
The Topgolf competition featured a fajita buffet for attendees and prizes for Highest Score Individual, Highest Score Team, Lowest Score Individual and Longest Drive. Participant feedback was outstanding! Players and sponsors really enjoyed being able to spend time with each other and MAA volunteers. The event team, led by Jessica Webb, MAA Regional Houston Training Specialist, helped raise awareness and earn nearly $50,000 for Open Arms.
Elizabeth MAA Regional Vice President in the North Division, successfully organized the annual Topgolf Nashville event on October 23, after three months of Phillips, planning. Several sponsors returned to support this fun afternoon of food, friends and golf that drew nearly $30,000 in donations for the Open Arms Foundation.
